Fall 2011 Runway Trend: White Knits

More

Whoever said you can't wear white after Labor Day clearly didn't deter designers like Isabel Marant and Stella McCartney from sending bright whites—layered with metallic, khaki, and other fresh neutral tones—down their winter runways. Proving that you can look cool while staying warm, their collections reinvented the idea of casual-luxe by pairing textured turtlenecks with slouchy trousers and oversized crewnecks with flowy skirts. From nubby sweater dresses to funnelneck tops, these warm white knits are versatile and oh-so-chic.

A simple sweater looks instantly glam when worn with a sparkly sequined mini. Add a little romantic charm to your ensemble and pair an off-the-shoulder knit with a ladylike lace skirt. For a pop of color, mix a white stitched mini with a rosy red pout or slip a bright frilly skirt on with your otherwise white ensemble. So give those outdated fashion maxims the cold shoulder, and wear white all winter long.

Bundle up! This fall's snow-white knits have revamped the slouchy sweater, and comfy has never looked so cute.
